In the field of modern industrial control, PLC has become the important equipment in automatic control. With the development of semiconductor technology, chip technology, the embedded PLC chipset emerged. The chipset microcontroller cores, PLC system software is loaded with high-performance, low power consumption, small size and other characteristics. User to flexibly customize according to their needs, using chipsets embedded PLC. This paper described the PLC chip design and application. Introductions PLC is a specially designed for applications in industrial environments, the operation of the electronic digital computing device. It can be programmed using the memory to perform logical operations in its internal storage operator sequence, timing, counting and arithmetic operations such as instruction, and through digital or analog input and output, the control of all types machinery or production process. PLC and related peripherals should connect industrial control system to form a whole, easy to extend the principle of functional design. Characteristics of the Programmable Controller PLC High Reliability PLC, due to the use of modern LSI technology, strict production process, the internal circuit takes advanced anti-jamming technology, high reliability. For example, the productions of the F series PLC Mitsubishi mean time between failures of up to 300,000 hours. Some redundant CPU PLC, the average time between failures is longer. From the PLC machine outside the circuit, using the PLC to constitute control system, and compared to the same scale as the relay contactor system, the electrical wiring and the switch contacts have been reduced to hundreds or even thousands of times, failure greatly diminishes. In addition, PLC with self-detection functions of the hardware failure, failure alarm information in a timely manner. In the application software, the application can also be incorporated into the self-diagnostic program for peripheral devices, so that the system, in addition to the circuit outside the PLC and equipment fault self-diagnosis Protection. In this way, the entire system has high reliability is not surprising. System Design, Construction Workload Small, Easy to Maintain, Easy to Transform PLC storage logic instead of wiring logic greatly reduced control equipment external wiring, control system design and construction cycle is much shorter, and maintenance easier. Is more important is that the same device after changing the program to change the production process become possible. It is suitable for many varieties, the production of small quantities of occasions. Small Size, Light Weight, Low Energy Consumption Ultra-small PLC, for example, recently produced varieties bottom size less than 100mm, and weighs less than 150g, only a few watts of power consumption. Due to the small size, easily loaded into the internal machinery is to achieve the mechatronic the ideal control equipment. All rights reserved.

Applied Mechanics and Materials Vol. 273 723 Chips Profile Chip is the carrier of the integrated circuit, divided from the wafer. The chip through the package can be made of common electronic components; can also be such as flip chip technology applications in the surface of the circuit board and the IC card, sending the answering machine. The word was first produced in 1944. In basic subjects, a chip is a tiny memory chips anomalies on behalf of said memory is not abnormal change means that this type of memory is no need to continue to maintain the energy. Design Approach Have two camps: FPGA and ASIC chip design. FPGA is a "soft" way. ASIC is the "hard" way. Become a reality because of deep submicron technology, but also because more and more IP modules FREE, an FPGA allows the user to the entire system, including the processor, main line, memory, more specific features, and user design logic, all quickly integrated into a single chip. Moreover, the FPGA single chip can reconfigure, design update is never a problem., Low production manufacturers, FPGA saving a disposable chip design costs. Programmable Controller Chip Design Microcontroller and PLC Chipset Secondary Development Application Needs Analysis The chipsets characteristics of the decision the embedded PLC system applies only to that small control system. For the chipsets application should meet the following requirements: the volume is small, to meet the basic I / O functions and process control functions, you need good humancomputer interaction, network communication function and good expansion capabilities, chipset shorter development cycle may be higher, lower costs, but also to ensure Reliability. Chipset Selection Chipset as the core components of the embedded PLC system, the embedded PLC system design process is crucial. What kind of chips used in a system group, depends primarily on the application area, the needs of users, the cost, the development of the degree of difficulty and other factors. Determine which chipset; the next step is to combine the needs of system peripherals, the peripheral interface circuit design. The Peripheral Interface Circuit Design from embedded PLC constituent can know, just a chipset not constitute embedded PLC system, using chipset functionality provided interface according to the user's needs, the second development, the peripheral interface circuit design, enabling control system to be achieved by the user. The peripheral circuit design to follow the modular principle, the principle of standardization. The Application Design and Development When the hardware design is in accordance with the needs of users, this is just to build the embedded PLC system hardware platform; this platform can not achieve the control functions of the PLC. In addition to the hardware platform, must also have the support of the software. In order to truly achieve the functionality required by the system. It is necessary to develop the software. The Embedded Chipset PLC Temperature Control System Design The embedded PLC User Control requires custom hardware to meet specific functional requirements, flexible and convenient.
